Description

The benchmark oil price has passed $100 a barrel for the first time since 2022, as the war in the Middle East enters a 10th day. Fighting continues across the Middle East, with the UAE and Qatar saying they have intercepted Iranian missiles, while Israel said it has detected more attacks. Israel said it is carrying out attacks on three parts of Iran, while also hitting Lebanon. Meanwhile, Iran named Mojtaba Khamenei - the son of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed nine days ago by US-Israeli strikes - as its new supreme leader.

The vessels aren't "stuck" in the gulf; they are waiting there due to an increase in marine insurance costs from firms such as Lloyds of London because of the conflict.

BBC, you guys NEED TO have a stern talk with whoever is responsible for sound quality in your team, because it sounded like the anchor lady was standing in the middle of a very busy airport

It should be understandable that the Iranian women want to flee a war zone, especially after learning that the US targeted a girls school, with 150 innocent lives taken.
